WASHINGTON – Is there an animal Olympics? If so, bet on Buttermilk.

Perhaps inspired by the gold-medal winning U.S. gymnastics team, a five-week-old Nigerian dwarf goat named Buttermilk Sky takes to the skies. The kid, from Holton, Maine, leapt over, around and on her other goat-friends, with precision that would surely make Jordyn Wieber jealous.

The video garnered nearly 1.5 million views on YouTube as of July 27.
